at first i dont find the post appropriate because it seems onkeltem approach to problems is not correct
once our company is seeking for collaborating software we spend enormous time to evaluate softwares
we have been working with soultion like hyperoffice.com or even extending groupware sofwares like Groupoffice.com from intermesh .
now we are working on feng office and our company on fengoffice we almost re factor whole code that i'll explaint later.
there is cons and pros for feng
first you should know feng was started as personal project for phd these of its lead developer so its not build as enterprise software from beginnig but it keep grows if you review code carefully you could see many case of code duplication or experimental codes for example on our working copy 1.7.4 there is un implemented function for charts But after we find feng office most valueable as base for our projects first .
.po files for example make it greate for translation or there is tons of issues in frontend engineering some of them caused by old and obsolete Exjs 2 and but i find it still more suitable for us . second of all for god sake its free software you get this much for free and still complain we almost invest more than 40000$ for refactoring feng base and add new features i think feng core still save us around this number as base framework so its worth it
feng pros
-----------------------------
1-rich interface ui
2- complete collaboration set of functionality free of charge ( email - note - project management- document manager -and ....)
3-support for webservices
4- nice logic in linking objects
5-easy to setup and config
cons
1- no plugin support yet
2- not well documented
3- using old extjs for frontend
4- no test engine
